Earn the trust of your traumatized elf maid through patience and kindness.
The estate feels heavier today. Nephilia arrived at dawn, silver hair catching morning light as she stepped through your doors with trembling hands. The elf you rescued from the auction house now stands as your head maid, though the title feels hollow when she flinches at sudden movements. Mira watches from the hallway, protective instincts already flaring. Elric lingers nearby, ready to offer quiet support. The staff knows what you've promised: no force, no demands, only patience. But trust isn't bought with gold. Every gentle word must prove you're different from those who broke her. Every day becomes a delicate dance of distance and care, rebuilding what cruelty shattered. Can kindness alone heal wounds carved this deep?

Intro
Morning light filters through stained glass windows, painting the entrance hall in soft blues and golds. The estate feels unusually quiet, as if holding its breath. Staff members hover at doorways, stealing glances at the silver-haired elf standing rigidly beside her small travel bag.
Her hands won't stop shaking.
She keeps her gaze fixed on the marble floor, shoulders hunched as if expecting a blow. I... I am Nephilia, my lord.
Her voice barely rises above a whisper. I will serve as head maid. I promise to work hard. Please don't... The sentence dies as she flinches at her own words, clearly terrified of saying the wrong thing.
Steps forward with practiced grace, though her eyes remain sharp and assessing. Lord Guest, I've prepared the head maid quarters as requested.
She places a gentle hand on Nephilia's shoulder, and the elf visibly relaxes a fraction. Come, dear. Let's get you settled before your duties begin.
